Verkkokaapeli shiverpeaks BASIC-S 0,5 m Cat7 S/FTP

The ShiverPeaks BASIC-S 0.5m Cat7 S/FTP networking cable is a short patch lead designed for reliable, high-speed Ethernet connections. Its Cat7 specification supports data rates suitable for modern wired networks and the S/FTP (shielded/foil twisted pair) construction reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide improved contact reliability and corrosion resistance while the compact 0.5 metre length is suited to tidy connections between nearby devices. The cable is finished in a vivid yellow jacket to aid identification in crowded installations.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding offers robust protection against external interference and internal pair-to-pair crosstalk, delivering stable signal integrity over short runs. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve conductivity and long-term durability compared with unplated connectors. The Cat7 category accommodates high-frequency transmission, making the cable compatible with gigabit and multi-gigabit Ethernet links where short patch cables are needed. The short 0.5m length reduces cable clutter and helps maintain organized rack and workstation layouts.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, patch panels and network devices in racks and cabinets
• Short patch connections between desktop PCs and wall ports
• High-density network setups where cable management is important
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Cable category: Class F / Cat7
• Shielding: S/FTP — overall braid with individual foil-shielded pairs
• Length: 0.5 metres
• Connector type: RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Conductor: stranded copper suitable for flexible patch use
• Jacket color: yellow
• Suitable for up to multi-gigabit Ethernet over short distances

How to use

Insert the gold-plated RJ-45 plugs into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your devices until the latch engages. Use the 0.5m cable for direct short connections between equipment in racks, on desks, or between patch panels and switches. Ensure connectors are fully seated and avoid sharp bends near the ends to preserve shielding and conductor integrity. For cleaner installations, route the cable along cable management channels or use Velcro ties to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Use this short Cat7 S/FTP cable where maximum shielding and minimal cable length are required: for patching within racks, behind wall-mounted panels, or connecting nearby devices. Avoid running the cable alongside high-voltage power lines for extended distances, and maintain bend radii recommended for Ethernet patch leads to ensure consistent performance.
